The Travel Channel World's Greatest Motorcycle Rides 1 - Riding Highway No 1 on a Saxon Custom Chopper

The Travel Channel has a great new programme: World's Greatest Motorcycle Rides, by Henry Cole. He makes these rides on a Saxon! He likes the looks of the semi custom bike and more important, the bike drives smoothly and comfortably.

US Highway 1, one of the most famous coastal rides in the world, hugs the west coast from San Francisco to Laguna Beach. Its 650 miles length is steeped in American history and iconography. There is adventure and luxury to experience in equal measure and the only way to feel the true sense of freedom and escapism is to ride it not drive it. If there is one route that delivers riding the American dream it has to be Highway 1.

There is some really great footage of the beauty of this planet. It looks so relaxing. I wish I could get out and see these wonderful places.

Love this show it's a joy to watch and dream. That being said if you like this one that always makes me laugh and has some really really spectacular roads was a Top Gear special in Vietnam. Riding from Saigon to Hanoi.

One of the best rides ever! Being from Cali,

I ride this as often as possible on my Road King Classic.

Whatever bike u have, get to this highway & enjoy! It's best to ride the entire

Highway 1 route thou, not just from

Santa Rosa.

C-ya on the road!

what´s the point? go all the way to California to ride a bike? You know what, I guess this British man just hate cold weather, cause there are billions of interesting places to ride a bike. I rode bikes in California when I lived there, you get bored cause the roads offer no challenges, besides everything looks the same along thousand miles, no big surprises. The weather is great, although is very cold if is not summer, but the best ride are the ones you ride with your friends, anywhere.
